- It took me 3 whole days to get my tree up! I have a fake pre-lit tree that is only a year old. When we took it out of the box and got it up, the bottom half didn't light up. I thought something was wrong with the light string or the lights, so I went out and bought a little Christmas lights bulb tester. By the time I got back I was too tired to fool with the tree. The next day, I set up the bulb tester but found that there wasn't a problem with those bulbs; I simply didn't have that string plugged in--duh! Well, at least my money didn't go to waste--there actually were two dead bulbs elsewhere. By the time I got done messing with the lights I was too tired to bother with the ornaments. Finally, on day three, I put up the ornaments and a little gate to prevent my boy from eating/climbing the tree and pulling down ornaments.
- Graduate school is hard work! I had a team project/paper due, so it's been eating up a lot of my time. I have excellent teammates, though, so I wasn't stuck doing things all by myself or anything--thank Goodness! My final is coming up (a week from today), so I've got reading and vocabulary to catch up on.
- My boy is more mobile than ever! He's crawling all over the place at record speed, and he's turned into a goat. That's right, he wants to eat every little piece of paper he can get his hands on. He managed to find a leaf the other day and almost choked on it. So I can't keep my eyes off him for a second. I'm really lucky that he's not too interested in our tree. Hopefully, it won't spark his interest any time soon.

You're doing better than me luv. I don't have the energy to even think about a tree.
I don't know how I missed that you were in grad school before. Good for you! I can't imagine focusing on 'homework' these days. You deserve a big pat on the back.
